There are some herbal remedies, but most of them have some sort of tranquilizer like passionflower or skullcap so that you can't use them during the day. Many of them also have tobacco. I don't want that, even if it's in homeopathic quantities (parts per billion).
So here is what I would do - and feel free to steal this idea and sell this product. Actually, if you could do that tomorrow, then I could take it, and it'd be awesome.
Either as a tincture or in single-serving cans of some fizzy and slightly tart drink, for taking one in the morning and once in the afternoon, the following:
- Avena sativa - milky oats - nervine
- Ocimum sanctum - holy basil - nervine
- Catnip and chamomile - non sedating relaxant
- Slippery elm and licorice root - for the poor tummy
- Peppermint and ginger - same
- Option for willow (salix) for headache but option without because of allergies
- Feverfew for headache but very little because it will hurt the tum
- Ecchinacea because we don't want to get sick
- Probiotics
- B-vitamins
- Chlorella/green superfood
Then a spray to carry around with you and squirt in your mouth during cravings:
- Gotu Kola to wake up the brain
- Ginseng for men or Dong quai (how do you spell that?) for women
- Mullien extract to help clean the lungs
- Horehound to get the goop out of your throat
- Licorice root for tummy and taste
- A hint of Astralagus for Chi.
- Spray comes in different flavors: Orange, mint, cinnamon, and sasparilla.
Lastly, a tincture or even a tea for night-time:
- Arnica, to reduce body aches
- Passionflower for sleep
- Kava for sleep but with an option for no Kava for people with liver problem
- Lavender for relaxing and because it tastes like something you should drink before sleep
- Hops for sleep (also nervine)
- Lobelia for sleep and relaxation
- Lemon balm for calming.
There you have it - my quit smoking herbal support wishlist. Anyone want to go make it?
